Requirements for KAP Professionals

Acceptance of Diverse SexualitiesEvery professional who is listed on the KAP referral list must believe that alternative forms of erotic play can be healthy and proper expressions of sexuality. Some of the forms of sexuality we are referring to here are SM, BD, DS, leather, and fetish. In short, a professional must agree that any form of consensual sexuality between adults can be considered healthy if practiced in a safe and responsible manner.

Geographic AreasKAP accepts submissions from kink-aware professionals throughout the world. Most listings are in the United States.

Types of ProfessionalsKAP includes the following professionals in the referral listing:

Psychologists

Counselors and Therapists

Lawyers

Doctors

Health and Wellness Practitioners (non-M.D.)

Accounting and Finance

Life Coaches

Spiritual Advisors/Wedding Officiators

Web Design/IT

Internet-Based Businesses

If your profession does not fall into one of the categories above, you can list in the "other professional" catagory. We know many other types of professionals would like to be listed, but these categories have been carefully selected as those professions in which a kink-friendly attitude can dramatically affect the effectiveness of the service to the community. You may choose to be listed in up to two categories.

All listings will be dated when posted and a listing will remain active for approximately one year. Due to a large number of listings that have not been kept up with current information by the listed professionals, we have had to place a time limit on postings to ensure a reasonable amount of accuracy for our site visitors. But as long as you renew your listing every year, you can remain posted on KAP as long as you wish. You will receive one email a few weeks prior to your listing being deleted. If you do not return to the site to renew your listing in a timely manner, your entry will be deleted and no longer available to site visitors.

We Reserve the Right to Refuse Listings from AnyoneKink Aware Professionals (KAP) reserves the right to refuse listings from any professional for any reason and reserves the right to remove any listing of any professional at any time at the sole discretion of KAP.

KAP Approval GuidelinesKink aware professionals must offer professional services for adults and be tolerant of those who engage in alternative sexual and relationship expressions. Kink aware professionals must support informed consent as the basis of ethical BDSM practices.

If you do not receive a confirming email after having made your listing submission, please check any SPAM folders or filters that may be associated with your email address.
